  • Email address

  • Company name (if provided)

  • The content of your message

We do not collect any sensitive personal data (such as health information, financial account details, or payment card data) through our website.

​

4. Our Lawful Basis for Processing

​

Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), we rely on the following lawful bases:

  • Legitimate interests - processing your enquiry and maintaining a professional relationship with you

  • Contractual necessity - where your enquiry relates to entering into or performing a contract with MI21

Where we rely on legitimate interests, we have assessed that our interest in responding to your enquiry does not override your rights and freedoms as an individual.

​

We retain contact enquiry data for no longer than three years from the date of your last communication with us, unless a longer retention period is required by law or necessary for ongoing contractual purposes.
After this period, your data will be securely deleted or anonymised.

​

6. Who We Share Your Data With

​

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties.
Your data may be shared with:

  • Our website platform provider (Wix.com), which hosts and processes contact form submissions on our behalf as a data processor. Wix operates under appropriate data processing agreements and security standards.

  • Professional advisers such as lawyers or accountants, where necessary and under strict confidentiality obligations.

  • Public authorities or regulators, where required by law.
     

We do not transfer your personal data outside the UK or European Economic Area (EEA) unless appropriate safeguards are in place.
